My change is not that dramatic- but since it is also my year anniversary with MFP- I thought it might be a good time to post my before and during pic. I am still on this journey. I have stalled- despite logging in to MFP and sticking to my calories) for the past few months. I just had a hysterectomy and have had to start…

Nice post! I thought I was doing pretty well on the "cool side"! I turned 48, had lost about 35 lbs with MFP, started running and signed up for my first 5k for a run here in Sept. Previous to that I quit my job and went back to school full time. But I just had a total hysterectomy (the works!) and have not been able to do…

LOL- guilty when it comes to the clothing excuses!

Congrats!! Nice outfit :) I am in the same boat- started at 185- now stuck at 150 for three months! How long did the 50 lbs take for you?

I had things like that happen too- and I realized one day that I was letting negative comments about myself slip out in front of my kids.. they might have been playing in the background- but they were listening (as kids do when we don't think so!!). I was muttering things to myself like -boy I feel fat in these pants.. or…

Good for you for breaking that cycle!! Don't worry about changing others... just start with yourself! I think you've gotten lots of good advice here on how you can start with some small things. Good luck!

Sooo in the middle of it! Recently empty-nested and suddenly noticed that all pictures of myself from the late thirties to this summer (aged 47) looked horrid.. how did I not notice?? So I am trying to get back on track after all these years! I find it slow going- compared to my husband, who seems to lose weight by just…

Forgot to weigh in!! Came really close to loosing the pumpkin- just a pound off of my goal! My clothes are starting to look really silly on me though- just hanging where they used to be tight- so I'll call that an NSV! My goal now is to loose a 10 lb Christmas "turkey"- gotta keep on keeping on- or should I say "keeping…

Hi there, I am from Ottawa- and just got back from the Trainyards (shopping!). I am pretty new to MFP and find that I am terrified to eat the calories I have gained from exercising. For example, after a boot camp fitness day I have about 500-600 extra daily calories to eat.. and I am just not that hungry. Any one else have…

Great idea! My name is Kathy and I have been a "lurker" (if that is the right term!) on MFP for the past month. I haven't posted anything as I wanted to see how this would go... I have kept to my goals faithfully and have lost 10 lbs! My husband started with me and he has lost 20 lbs- what gives! lol I seem to be stuck the…
